Volume 1 The Phoenix Bird Returns to the Dust and the World Changes Chapter 3 Martial Arts Grandmaster
Outside the window, the snow was mighty, without the slightest tendency to decay, and the north wind whimpered, like the sorrow of a lonely ghost in the bleak night.
In the main room, Lu Jingyuan finally couldn't stay up and fell asleep after more than two hours of intense attention, Chen Xiu's broad body blocked in front of him, sitting still in front of him.
Chen Xiu closed his eyes and pursed his lips, sitting cross-legged, with a silver-white sword on his lap, under the jumping reflection of the firelight, the blade of the sword bloomed with a dazzling cold light, like a line of flowing water.
Chen Xiu's facial features are ordinary, and his appearance is not outstanding, and he is lost in the crowd, but whenever he holds a sword in his hand, his momentum will undergo earth-shaking changes, becoming heroic and imposing, according to those pedants who like to drop their book bags, this is called "three-foot spirit, chivalrous posture." ”
A cold wind blew, blowing the hair around his ears, and his slender willow eyebrows trembled slightly.
His instincts told him that someone was approaching.
The next moment, he opened his eyes, and his pupils burst with fine light, staring directly at the wooden window that had been pushed open by the strong wind, and looking out of the window at the blurry and chaotic world.
There is no doubt that there is movement. With his keen gaze, he spotted and locked on to a figure that stood on top of the high wall, facing his gaze, and the figure leaned down, disappearing in an instant.
"Someone is coming!" Chen Xiu shouted, and suddenly woke up Lu Jingyuan, who was sleeping soundly.
"Who's coming!" Lu Jingyuan was obviously frightened by this sound, and suddenly came back to his senses, turned over with a clapped palm, and ejected from the ground, and then stood up with a sword stake and drew his sword to protect himself.
"Bang bang bang!" There were three sound of gold and stone colliding in succession, and Chen Xiu's figure had already left the place, leaving an afterimage of the Dao in front of Lu Jingyuan.
Chen Xiu swung his sword with one hand like a snake spitting out letters, splitting the three short flying knives that struck at lightning speed.
The three flying knives fell short one after another, obviously it was just the mysterious person who was testing him, Chen Xiu, who had a solemn face, looked and listened to all directions, but unfortunately the other party had no follow-up.
Only the ice and snow outside the wooden door were encroaching on the inside of the house, and the floor inside the threshold was full of condensed ice, but this scene was only created after the mysterious man appeared.
Outside, the tall black shadow walked on the snow without leaving a trace, and he took a few steps closer to the threshold, and before his fingers could touch the door buckle, the big wood burst open.
"Who is Your Excellency, and what is the matter with the attack in the middle of the night?"
"I've forgotten my name, some people call me the Killer Demon King, some people call me a martial madman, and some people ...... I forgot. ”
Chen Xiu exclaimed, "Are you that Ximen Xun?"
The tall figure has long hair and a shawl, hollow eyes, thin cheeks, and two long white eyebrows are particularly eye-catching, and the shape is like a piece of dead wood.
The man was wearing a wide tiger-striped black robe, his appearance was ordinary, but his qi was like a stormy wave, and the moment he heard the swordsman reply, his pupils burst out, and he muttered: "Yes, the old man's name is Ximen Xun, the Ximen of the Ximen family in Taizhou, and the Xun of the Confucian sage Xunzi." ”
"What? You know me?"
"Hehe, the killer demon king Ximen Xun has long been famous, how could I not know. ”
"Ximen Xun, why did you sneak attack me in the middle of the night?"
Although Chen Xiu was afraid of the powerful cultivation of the person in front of him, he was not afraid, and he was already ready to urge the internal strength of the qi pockets in his whole body to meet the enemy with a single blow.
"Hehe, what reason does the old man need to come, just as the old man never needs a reason to kill. ”
Ximen Xun's feet swirled lightly, and a strong internal qi lingered around his body, and under the powerful aura, snowflakes could not float into the house.
"Of course, if you want to save your life, then go back, go back under my eyes, this house is occupied by the old man, and the idle people are all gone. ”
"Presumptuous! How can I be bullied by you in Yangzhou Lu Mansion and eat my sword!" Chen Xiu's eyes were sharp, and he raised his sword and flew to attack.
"I just haven't done it for a long time, so let the old man understand the strength of the four swordsmen in Yangzhou, don't let me be disappointed." ”
"Don't be ashamed!" Chen Xiu's sword was like thunder, and he went straight to the door of the withered old man's face, but the man bounced open with his fingers and pounced.
Chen Xiu exclaimed, "Good strength!"
A sword missed, and in an instant, he turned his body and changed his sword style to slash over.
The withered old man stood up and raised his left arm to catch it, the blade collided with the flesh palm, Chen Xiu only felt that the blade was like a split on an iron axe, and it was not cheap to pick it up at all, which showed how strong the old man's body was.
Dancing seven or eight sword moves in a row, the old man easily took it, and then began to fight back, bent his arms and clenched his fists, the speed of the fist was like a shower, crackling and punching more than ten times, and finally repelled Chen Xiu, who was blocking the force of the vertical sword, with a heavy punch that exploded with a qigang.
"The iron fists of the martial madman really live up to their reputation, and today I can be regarded as a teacher. ”
"Your strength is not bad, you can actually pass ten moves in the hands of the old man, if you change to someone else, your flesh and blood will already be blurred, and it will be terrifying. ”
Chen Xiu was holding the sword with one hand at the moment, his palms trembled slightly, and there was already a slight crack in the tiger's mouth, and the withered old man's set of "Rainstorm Knocking Stones" boxing method was really domineering, if it weren't for his own solid martial arts cultivation, he blocked it stubbornly, and he was afraid that he would have been defeated under his hands at this moment.
Chen Xiu stared straight at the scrawny old man in front of him, the old man's body qi that erupted at the moment he repelled him was very surging, Chen Xiu knew very well his cultivation, this old man's martial arts cultivation was a few points higher than he expected.
His cultivation is no more than the Seven Realms of Martial Dao, and the Martial Arts cultivation of the withered old man is already the peak of the Seven Realms, infinitely close to consummation.
The current situation can be described as extremely tricky, how to deal with the enemy when encountering a quasi-martial arts junior master with a lower level of strength.
He suddenly saw the fire not far under his feet, and his heart was overjoyed, and he moved a sword in a few steps to flick up a few sections of burning firewood, and the firewood flew away like an arrow from the string, and Chen Xiu took advantage of the fire to attack Ximen Xun again.
Ximen Xun snorted coldly and said, "Little trick!"
Ximen Xun opened the bow left and right with both palms, like a big knife chopping wood, and in an instant, there were no arrows burning on fire, Chen Xiu followed, and stabbed away with a sword.
The blade of the sword was half a foot away from the door of the old man, but he could no longer advance a bit, only to see Ximen Xun clasping his palms to lock the blade, and a terrifying aura burst out between his palms, and under the gaze of the naked eye, it could be seen that there was a violent fluctuation of air flow in the palms of the ten palms, and he looked at Chen Xiu, whose body was hanging in the air and did not fall, and smiled contemptuously.
"It's time for the old man to make a move!"
"Earthquake mountains and rivers!"
The sword in Chen Xiu's hand was broken and shattered inch by inch under Ximen Xun's strong internal strength, and the sword body was densely covered with spider web-like cracks.
Chen Xiu's body flew upside down like a kite with a broken string, and when he broke away from Ximen Xun's attack range, Chen Xiu suddenly sacrificed a handleless short sword, which was so fast that the withered old man couldn't dodge, and almost pierced his throat.
The short sword left a red blood mark on Ximen Xun's neck.
Ximen Xun stared and said: "You kid has some means to impress the old man." ”
"Who ordered you, and why did you do it to us? Chen Xiu didn't attack again, at this moment his lips were a little pale, and there was blood in his chest that poured straight into his throat, which had already hurt the vital point.
Ximen Xun said indifferently: "It's just that the money and disasters of people are just for their own interests." ”
"The old man's purpose tonight is to seriously injure or kill you, and that boy is not the old man's target. After that, Ximen Xun's figure came out and took Chen Xiu directly.
Chen Xiu couldn't care so much, and suddenly condensed the strength in his whole body, his face turned from white to red in an instant, and Ximen Xun's palms were connected, and the wooden house was wrapped in countless abundant qi, and the suppressive momentum made the remaining fire no longer boil.
Lu Jingyuan, who had been looking for an opportunity to move, had his eyes lit up, drew his knife and slashed, wanting to take advantage of the withered old man's carelessness to cut off his arms, who knew that Ximen Xun's momentum climbed steeply, and Lu Jingyuan's momentum was not only to get what he wanted, but was injured by the pure and incomparable qigang, and flew out upside down.
In the blink of an eye, Lu and Chen were both defeated, one was severely injured and the other was slightly injured.
Ximen Xun looked at Chen Xiu, whose mouth was full of blood, and did not kill it all, and there was regret and appreciation in his pupils, but in the end it turned into cold and lonely like water.
At this moment, the bright light outside the house is quite sparse, and before you know it, it is approaching dawn, and the cold wind and snow are much weaker.
Ximen Xun turned his head to the outside of the window lattice of the wooden house and said coldly: "Since you have been watching it for so long, why hide and hide, like a snake and rat, come out." ”
"Junior Bai Yu thank the old man Simon for coming to help, thank you for the great grace, I will deliver the things that the old man of Simon wants in a few days. The young monk in a blue robe pushed the door open respectfully and entered, followed by a group of five people with different expressions, who stood near the threshold.
"Well, now that the matter has been done, the old man will take his leave first, and finally. Don't look for an old man for such a trivial matter in the future. Ximen Xun walked to the door, and a gust of wind hung up his robe, and a touch of pure and warm brilliance flowed around his waist.
It's a jade pendant.
Ximen Xun passed by him, and then Bai Yu made a solemn Taoist salute to the thin back, turned around and looked at the injured two meaningfully and said, "I didn't expect that we would meet again so soon, and the second son of Lu should not come unharmed." ”
"A bunch of thieves who are as timid as rats will only do something unseemly. Lu Jingyuan spat out, full of disdain.
"Thief, Lu Gongzi, don't button your hat indiscriminately, we are monks from famous families, and we can't get along with thieves. ”
"Now we have made a big deal, gold is not a dream!" Takeo Hammer looked overjoyed.
"Bai Gongzi, how should we deal with the two of them like this?" The umbrella warrior walked to Bai Yu's side and glanced lightly at Chen Xiu, who had a weak breath.
Lu Jingyuan turned his head to look at Chen Xiu, who had suffered a serious internal injury, his breath was weak and unstable, and he was leaning on the stone pier to close his eyes to heal his injuries, and he was the only one who still had combat strength.
He stared straight at the white picture outside the window, frowning and silent.
When the group of six respectfully and humbly moved away to make way for Ximen Xun to go out, Lu Jingyuan inadvertently caught that familiar light, his expression was shocked, and the scene from a hundred days ago appeared in his mind, the masked man who didn't know his identity, and Ximen Xun who practiced until he went crazy.
All kinds of deeds surged violently in his mind like a tide, like a mess being sorted out, and he suddenly realized, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but tilt slightly.
He had a plan in mind to keep the two of them safe and sound.
Lu Jingyuan shouted: "Ximen Xun, if you leave at this time, I will keep you and you will regret it." ”
Ximen Xun looked strange and slowly turned his head.
